The Bamenda city Mayor, Paul Achobong Tembeng, has been inducted as the pioneer parish Pastor of the Reformed Overcomers Parish of Bamenda.

The ceremony to induct the Mayor took place Sunday January 29, 2023 at the new Reformed Overcomers Parish situated at Up Station, Bamenda and was officiated by Pastor Kedji Festus, the General Overseer of the Overcomers Chapel from Yaounde.

While speaking during the induction ceremony, Pastor Paul Achobong said everyone has a purpose on earth. He added that the church is also a strong body to change the mind of the people, especially within the context of the region characterized by civil unrest.

Elected City Mayor of Bamenda in 2020, Paul Achobong says he has been fighting for the return of peace in the city. He has on several occasions called on separatist fighters to drop their weapons and follow him to the council for employment opportunities.

His ordination as a Pastor may just be another momentum for him to transform the City spiritually
